The PCCs and churches here have thought carefully about their future direction and what they are therefore looking for in their new incumbent. These parishes work well together and are keen to appoint someone who can lead them in growing the church in this rural area. Alongside the development of mission and ministry in this benefice, the Diocese of Oxford is also exploring a common vision of what it means to be ‘A Christ-like Church, the Church of the Beatitudes’, to be 'contemplative, compassionate, courageous' in all we attempt together. It will be important for anyone taking up a post in the diocese to be able to engage with this vision as it develops and offer their own insights, ideas and energy as appropriate in their context. These are early days, and this is an excellent opportunity to be part of a transformative process across the diocese at every level, including parish and benefice. You will see from the person specification that this vision is beginning to be part of the thinking in this benefice. A rural multi-parish like this offers a wonderful opportunity for a fulfilling ministry that can make a real difference in the local communities and enable more people to encounter the love of God. This is a fascinating time to lead this benefice into the next stage of its spiritual journey and we look forward to welcoming someone who will help these parishes fulfil their potential. With every blessing as you discern where God may be calling you. Judy French Archdeacon of Dorchester 3 Introduction from the Area Dean and Lay Chair of the Deanery of Aston & Cuddesdon We are delighted that you are exploring the possibility of coming to minister here. We are one of the larger deaneries in the Diocese of Oxford with more than 50 churches, including Dorchester Abbey. The deanery is essentially rural, but wraps around the north-east, east and south of Oxford. Deanery Chapter and Synod are well attended, and the Chapter in particular has a strong sense of fellowship, so there is a lot of support around. As well as this, we offer an amazing location – transport links are excellent, and the new Oxford Parkway station, just 15 minutes by car from the Vicarage, serves London with trains that take less than an hour. Oxford is, of course, on the doorstep, with all the cultural, educational, and social richness for which it is famous. We can say with conviction that this is a lovely part of the country in which to live. The people of these parishes are immensely friendly, great fun, and have high expectations of their clergy. So there are many challenges! The church families of these villages are raring to move forward in collaboration with a new priest, who will have a deep love of God, a passion for the Gospel, and a heartfelt desire to grow churches. Could that be you? If so, we do hope you’ll want to think about joining us. Rev’d Emma Pennington Simon Richards Area Dean Lay Chair Vacancy Prayer We are very pleased that you are reading this profile. Maybe God is calling you to be our new incumbent. During the vacancy we are using this prayer written specially for us by the Rev’d Hugh Lee: Heavenly Father, During our vacancy, give us courage and compassion, creativity and contemplation as we think about the future. Help us to be prayerful, patient and discerning in all that we do and plan that, through our work, your will for us may be made known. And we pray that, through the prompting of the Holy Spirit, we will find the person of your choice to be our vicar to work with us and among us for the development of our parishes and the building of your Kingdom. We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen Could you be the ‘vicar to work with us and among us for the development of our parishes’? 4 Our Place in the World We think that this is a wonderful place to live, the best of all worlds. The parishes are within 7 miles of the centre of Oxford and only 4 miles from its eastern suburb of Headington. We are within striking distance of the River Thames, the Cotswolds and the Chilterns. Then further to the south are the Berkshire Downs. There is easy access to the M40 and good public transport links mean that London and Birmingham can be reached in about an hour. Our Benefice, known to us as the Four Parishes, comprises four rural parishes in four picturesque rural villages a few miles to the north-east of the city of Oxford. It is a short drive (under 15 minutes), from Forest Hill in the south, through Stanton St John, then on to Beckley or turning east to Horton-cum-Studley. The Benefice is within the Deanery of Aston & Cuddesdon, the Archdeaconry of Dorchester and the Diocese of Oxford. Each village has its own church: St John the Baptist, Stanton St John St Nicolas, Forest Hill with Shotover The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Beckley St Barnabas, Horton-cum-Studley 5 How we see ourselves The four parishes are geographically close, but each has a unique and distinctive character. There is more about our villages and churches in ‘The Benefice Under the Microscope’ in Appendix 1. Across the Benefice we all share the same vision, to love and serve God in our different communities. We have at least one service in each parish, in a variety of formats, every Sunday, except the fourth Sunday of the month. This is when we meet together in one of our churches for a Joint Benefice Service. We are constantly reviewing our service patterns to try to meet the needs of our communities. We are all welcoming and friendly. We also have opportunities to meet together for worship for special services such as Confirmations and Ascension Day, for our quarterly Rota Meetings, and socially at our Annual Meeting. We publish a monthly ‘Four Parishes News Magazine’, including church service times, special events, general local news, and advertisements (which sustain its costs). Ascension Day Past copies are available at: https://www.stnicolasforesthill.org/four-parishes/

  • A Short History of WHEATLEY STONE
    A Short History of WHEATLEY STONE By W. O. HASSALL ILLUSTRATED BY PETER TYSOE 1955 Printed at the Oxford School of Art WHEATLEY STONE The earliest quarry at Wheatley to be named in the records is called Chalgrove, but it is not to be confused with the famous field of the same name where John Hampden was mortally wounded and which was transformed into an aerodrome during the war. Chalgrove in Wheatley lies on the edge of Wheatley West field, near the boundary of Shotover Park on the south side of the road from London to High Wycombe, opposite a turning to Forest Hill and Islip where a modern quarry is worked for lime, six miles East of Oxford. The name of Challrove in Wheatley is almost forgotten, except by the elderly, though the name appears in the Rate books. The exact position is marked in a map of 1593 at All Souls College and grass covered depressions which mark the site are visible from the passing buses. The All Souls map shows that some of these depressions, a little further east, were called in Queen Elizabeth’s reign Glovers and Cleves pits. The Queen would have passed near them when she travelled as a prisoner from Woodstock to Rycot on a stormy day when the wind was so rough that her captors had to hold down her dress and later when she came in triumph to be welcomed by the City and University at Shotover, on her way to Oxford. The name Chaigrove is so old that under the spelling Ceorla graf it occurs in a charter from King Edwy dated A.D.
